Skill Share Lunch: Raspberry Pi Home Automation

20 Juli 2017|12:00to13:00|alexandrakunzli

Do you want your shutters to open by themselves when the sun comes up, unless it gets too hot inside, then they close again? Do you want smart floor lighting that only turns on at night when you want to go to the bathroom, all by itself?

What if your stereo could remind you to put out the trash on Monday morning?

All of these things are possible with cheap, open-source home automation systems you can run on a Raspberry Pi. Based on his experience of putting together a Home Automation for a project at Muutu, Josh will talk to us about what he has learned.

This talk will mainly focus on the controller software Home Assistant. But also on many other devices used in the system, including an Amazon Echo, Philips Hue, Ikea smart lights, and many z-wave devices.

If you have specific ideas or questions about a Home Automation project you are doing, bring them along for the Q&A.
